על המחבר
Earl Derr Biggers (1884–1933) was an American novelist and playwright, best known for creating the fictional Chinese-American detective Charlie Chan. A native of Warren, Ohio, Biggers graduated from Harvard University in 1907. Soon afterward, he embarked on a career as a journalist and columnist before eventually turning his talents to writing fiction. Although the Charlie Chan series brought him international acclaim, Biggers also wrote other novels that displayed his flair for mystery and comedy. Among these is 'The Ebony Stick' (1916), a lesser-known work that nonetheless showcases Biggers' skill in crafting engaging narratives and his ability to infuse his stories with humor and intrigue. His literary style often combines elements of mystery with an underlying witticism, making for a light-hearted yet captivating read. Biggers' contribution to the genre of detective fiction was significant, not just in terms of entertainment but also in the cultural impact of introducing a positive Chinese character during a time of prevalent prejudice. Throughout six novels featuring Charlie Chan, including 'The House Without a Key' (1925) and 'The Chinese Parrot' (1926), his work has been characterized by thoughtful plots and charm. While his literary output was relatively small, his influence endures, and he remains a notable figure in the annals of American detective fiction.
